Quote: martinwildbull "Can't quite get my head around that "on the overseas quota" bit. the BBC article covering his signing for crusaders says that he has an EU passport, in which case he cannot be overseas, and now he is a Fed trained so off both quotas. so yes we can sign a Kolpak or EU nonfed player now, or an overseas nonfed player when BJ gets his passport.'"

Just pretty much typed what was in the article, not sure how accurate it is. The quota rules blag my head a bit, I think even the RFL make it up as they go.

Quote: Bully_Boxer "The article in League Express said that the RFL have allowed Sammut to be classed as Federation Trained but he will remain on the overseas quota.Which means we can sign an overseas player who doesn't count on the quota. For example one who has the right to a British passport through ancestry or is exempt due to having a Pacific Island passport.'"

Doesn't sound correct about sammut staying on overseas quota. He wasn't on it to start with. Think LE may have got it wrong and meant to put he will revert to non fed when his dispensation expires. If he is now on overseas quota then we have six players on quota til bjs passport arrives

It stated that our quota players for next year would be Kearney, L'Estrange, Purtell, Lulia and Sammut with the club confident that BJ will soon obtain an English passport to take him off quota. With the exception of Sammut the other 4 above will also count as non-fed which would leave us with one non-fed spot left.

well sammut didnt count on overseas quota for crusaders due to his maltese passport so dont see why he should count on ours.

I'm pretty certain it was stated when we signed him that he didnt count on overseas quota and only on non-fed pending clarification as to whether he qualified for dispensation. Cant find any mention of it in any online articles though. If he is on the quota now then we won't be able to register one off sammut,purtell or lulia until jeffries passport comes through ( assuming jeffries, kearney and l'estrange are all already registered for duration of their contracts.)

I thought that but someone checked with duffy a few weeks back and lulia doesnt have a cook islands passport so isnt covered by contanou agreement

Correct Mat. Lulia has an Aussie passport tho plays for Cook Islands due to parents/grandparents rule. Just as Withers had an Aussie passport and played for Ireland. Sammut supposedly has an EC passport being Maltese, same as Elima being French, hes not on quota though. So have the BBC got it wrong in their article or has Malta been thrown out of the EU? and Mat, bl**dy iphone again icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_19829.gif



Where does Morro fit into all this, hypothetically speaking could we sign him and a.n.other over seas prop ?
(we can assume BJ will get his passport eventually)

Well that rumour was started by a Bulls fan so it could be wishful thinking.
